Dancin’ in the Dirt

Sayers, Texas 1979

Dancin’ in the Dirt

I never made the big time, nor raced the Astrodome.

Just did my best like the rest, and loaded up for home.

It didn’t matter where I was, on Sunday I’d be racin’.

Stand on the pegs and gas it, no matter where yer placin’.

In the desert South of Vegas, or the piney Jersey Barrens.

No, it ain’t the suit nor tie, it’s just the trail that beckons.

The dust and mud that leads to freedom, will take away the hurt,

And all I ever want to do, is go dancin’ In the dirt.
